Israel is like that guy that's super afraid of being seen as weak, so they pretend with all their might to be seen as an "alpha" just for it to be paper thin and for everyone to think they're a weak person.

Hate to point it out, but it's an entirely different scenario.
43 USC §364.e: With respect to geographic names the pertinent decisions and principles issued by the Secretary shall be standard for all material published by the Federal Government. The United States Board on Geographical Names in the Department of the Interior created by Executive order, is abolished, and the duties of said Board are transferred to the Board herein created, __and all departments, bureaus, and agencies of the Federal Government shall refer all geographic names and problems to the said Board for the purpose of eliminating duplication of work, personnel, and authority.__
We didn't rename the Gulf, but the way its referenced from within the federal government (and its agencies) was changed by EO. Since Google is a government contractor, they're contractually obligated (and legally obligated) to follow the nomenclature expressed by the US board on geographical names or they risk losing all of their government contracts.
So did we change the name of the Gulf? No. Is it shown different to US residence now? Yes. Google additionally released a statement saying;
“a longstanding practice of applying name changes when they have been updated in official government sources.”

If she believed the drug charges were expunged and they were not, then she likely filled out the wrong immigration form and was granted residency because she "lied" on a government immigration document.
With a drug charge she very likely would not have been approved for residency. But this also means it's an oversight by USCIS, because the applicants criminal history should have been reviewed at the time of her application.
Something isn't adding up here.

This crash has to be so bad that the next US President that even so much as hints at wanting to use tariffs for any purpose other than what they're intended for, would be personally walked to the gallows.

I mean, I don't work for the AP. But if you absolutely must have a sensationalized title, I probably would go with "Harrowing Toll in Gaza Strike--Majority of Victims Reported to Be Children."

Sure, but look at the title. You don't call, after blowing up a school, child casualties "people." That's what we call trying to soften the blow.

Strike on school
17 __people__ killed
lol ok. Anything not to paint Israel as child murderers, I guess. Careful not to consume the boot.

I think rather you missed something. Not once have I said anything about the value of the dollar being China's responsibility.
I answered your direct question while ignoring the rest of the bullshit you made up without even pointing out that you pulled it from nowhere and it's stupid. I think I did a pretty good job.

How is the US defaulting on loans
By refusing to pay back debt--refusing to increase the debt ceiling, etc.

Maybe the ideological end. I'm talking about the collapse of the dollar--which is synonymous with the US. We're already talking about defaulting on loans, and now our economic competitors are offering safe haven for billions in investments because the dollar isn't in a good place. People generally don't like to flop large sums of money around. If its in dollars, they'll keep it there until there's a reason not to--and vice versa. If confidence in the dollar is low enough that people run to China for investment opportunities to protect their capital, they'll never return to the dollar.

And the end begins. Our economic enemies are going to use this period of instability to completely decimate the dollar.

It's not even about state secrets. It's about bleeding the US dry of its talent. And it's a strategy that absolutely will work.

They'd rather have the excuse to commit genocide once and for all, from the looks of it.
